Our strategy aims at making Tryg stronger and more competitive and
to ensuring continuous improvements in earnings. Having introduced

The combined ratio for the quarter was 84.8 (87.7), which was lower
than for the same period in 2012, and includes a 2.3 percentage
pointimprovementasaconsequenceoftheefficiencyprogramme
implemented. Furthermore, a lower level of weather claims and large
claims improved the combined ratio by 1.7 percentage points (4.6).
The expense ratio improved markedly from 16.4 to 15.5 as a result
of the cost-cutting measures implemented. The improvement was
achieved during a period with negative premium growth.
Withacombinedratioof84.8forQ32013,Tryghasfulfilledthe
target of an annual combined ratio of 90 or lower from Q3 2013,
and the long-term target is an annual level of 90 or lower to

The Danish market is characterised by a slightly higher level of
consumerconfidenceandslightlyincreasingresidentialproperty
prices, but a continued unemplyment at approximately 6 %. Car sales
in Denmark are dominated by small cars. The Norwegian economy is
characterised by a low level of unemployment (approximately 3%),
low interest rates and rising real wages, which for Tryg entails
acontinuedfocusontheriskofclaimsinflationandtheresulting
need for price adjustments.
High customer satisfaction is very important for Tryg, and we are
therefore pleased that the customers have embraced our new price-
differentiatedproductsandthenewcustomerconceptintheDanish
market, which was announced in Q2 2013. In Q3, special focus was
on the Norwegian market, which saw the introduction of a new mo-
tor insurance product with parking cover. Parking cover ensures that
the customer claims are covered without loss of bonus. Experience
fromthedifferentiatedproductshasbeenpositive,andmarkedly
increased sales rates have been realised through improved selection
and risk-based pricing. The sales rates for the Travel insurance and
Caravan insurance products are thus up by between 20% and 30%.
Thespecialbenefitsprogramme,TrygPlus,whichwaslaunchedin
Q2 in Denmark, was given a very satisfactory reception by custom-
ers. Customers have shown particularly satisfactory interest in the
TrygHomeAlarmprogrammewherebyspecialbenefit-customers,
who have an alarm installed in their homes, pay a reduced premium
for their contents insurance due to the lower risk of being burgled or
incurringwaterandfiredamages.
A customer concept has been developed for the Norwegian market,
which is very similar to the Tryg Plus concept. The concept comprises
Tryg ID, Tryg Home Alarm and Tryg Backup.

Premiums
GrosspremiumincomewasDKK4,867minQ32013,corresponding
to a reduction of 3.4% in local currencies (-1.4%). The negative
development in premium income was in line with expectations and
emphasisesTryg’sfocusonprofitability.Aconsiderableincreasein
bonus and premium discounts was a contributory factor to the low
premiumgrowth.Thismustbeseeninlightoftheimprovedprofit-
ability of a number of major group agreements, and of the intro-
ductionofaprofitsharingelementintheagreementwithNordea,
whereas the earlier agreement was based primarily on the paying
of commission on new business. Exclusive of bonus and premium
discounts, negative growth of 2.2% was posted for Q3 2013 in local
currencies.
Further, the reduced premium income must be seen in light of the
profitability-improvingmeasuresintroducedearlierandwhichin
2012resultedinanincreasedoutflowofbusinessandlowersalesin
both the Private and Commercial business areas. The development
inpremiumincomeisalsoaffectedbymacroeconomicdevelop-
ments in Denmark, which have, among other things, impacted
private consumption and increased the demand for small cars.
This translates into a reduction in premium income, but also in
claims as safety levels are generally high, reducing the risk of claims.
Moreover, the commercial market in Denmark has been negatively
impacted in particular by lower private consumption, which has
led to hard times for this segment, resulting in job cuts and thereby
a declining demand for workers’ compensation insurance. This
decline in the demand for insurance has had a negative impact on
premium income.
In2013,developmentsintheprivatemarketwereaffectedbya
higher level of sales, but also by a slightly higher than expected
customeroutflowduetothefiercecompetitivesituation.Salesin
the commercial market were in line with expectations, given the
intensifying competition. In the corporate market, premium income
was lower than in 2012 due to the loss of a number of large custom-
ers.UnchangedprofitabilityisthefocusareafortheCorporate
segment,whichwillleadtopremiumincomefluctuationsover
time. This is due, among other things, to the regular entry of foreign
players on this market, leading to a loss of business for Tryg due to
itsfocusonprofitability.
Claims
The gross claims ratio was 75.9 (70.3). The claims ratio, net of ceded
business,was69.3(71.3).Thesubstantialdifferencebetweenthe
gross claims ratio and the claims ratio, net of ceded business, is
attributable to a large claim within guarantee insurance in respect
ofthefirmofcontractorsPihl&Søn,whichisexpectedtoadd
approximateyDKK0.7bntogrossclaims.Duetothenatureofthe
guarantee insurance business, reinsurance is used more widely
within this segment than within the rest of the general insurance
segment.Thismeansthattheeffectonresultswillbelimitedto
DKK30m.Moreover,Q3wasimpactedbyalowlevelofweather
claims and large claims corres ponding to 1.7% (4.6%).
The improved claims ratio, net of ceded business, can be ascribed,
in particular, to the measures implemented within the procurement
ofclaimsservicesandcostcuts.MeasuresworthDKK90mwere
implemented in Q3, corresponding to an improvement of 1.8 percen t -
age points. Relative to the target of claims prevention measures to-
tallingDKK350mattheendof2013,measurestotallingDKK330m
had been realised at the end of Q3. The combined target for the
periodupto2015isDKK700m.Whilethemeasureshavepreviously
centred primarily on motor, in Q3 greater focus was on the proc-
urement of claims services within building and contents insurance,
among other things through the use of Scalepoint. Moreover, the aim
is to leverage Tryg’s purchasing strength and to enter into agree-
mentswithcraftsmenbasedonfixedpricesforpre-definedjobs.
Tryghasextendedanoffertocustomerswherebytheycanhavetheir
basements checked by an authorised sewer contractor with a view
to assessing ways of reducing the risk of weather-related claims.
Moreover,TryghasintroducedTrygBurglarycheck,offeringburglary
checks conducted in collaboration with the Danish Locksmith
Federation. The target group has been customers who have been
burgled in the past 20 months. The initiatives have been welcomed
by customers who would generally be happy to recommend the
initiatives to other customers.
The large claims ratio was 1.7 (3.5) and was thus lower than the
approximately 2.3 expected for an average quarter. As mentioned
earlier, this includes a guarantee insurance claim, which has a
considerable impact on the gross claims ratio, but which has only
a limited impact on the results due to reinsurance.

Costs
The expense ratio was 15.5 (16.4), which represents a marked
improvement relative to the prior-year period and which must be
seen in the context of an expense ratio target of less than 15 in
2015. The lower expence ratio is to contribute to ensure competitive

Private encompasses the sale of insurance products to private
individuals in Denmark and Norway. Sales are effected via call
centres, the Internet, Tryg’s own agents, franchisees (Norway),
interest organisations, car dealers, estate agents and Nordea’s
branches. The business area accounts for 48% of the Group’s
total premium income.

In Q3, the Private market in Denmark was characterised by budding
optimism and also by slightly higher activity levels in the housing
market. Sales of private cars plummeted in July, but August saw
the same positive trends as last year, and so far sales of new cars
are up 5.2% in 2013 relative to last year. Sales were still dominated
by strong sales of small cars with more safety features, resulting
in lower average insurance premiums. The Norwegian economy
remains characterised by growth, a high level of private consump-
tion, low unemployment and pay increases of approx. 4%. All in all,
car sales for the months of July and August were about 2% down
on the prior-year period, whereas 2013 has seen growth of 0.6% to
date.Norwegianinflationremainslow,butasthedevelopmentin

Premiums
Grosspremiumincomedecreasedby2.9%andwasaffectedbyboth
thecompetitivesituation,profitsharingandthenewdistribution
agreement with Nordea. Initiatives introduced in recent years to
improveprofitabilityhavealsoresultedinimprovedresultsingroup
agreementsthatincludeaprofit-sharingelement.Thismeans,of
course,thatthelevelofprofitsharingishigherthanpreviously,while
thedistributionagreementwithNordeaalsoincludesprofitsharing.
Exclusive of bonus and premium discounts, negative growth of 1.4%
was posted for Q3 2013. The strong sales of small cars with many
safety features also mean that premium income is reduced, as the
risk and thus the price of insurance are lower.
The renewal rate was at a high level, though a slight decrease was
recorded in Denmark. In the Norwegian market Private has seen a
positiveinflowofcustomers.Thedevelopmentinpremiumincomeis
alsoinfluencedbytheprofitability-enhancinginitiativesintroducedin
recent years, leading to a small fall in retention rate which, moreover,
has been increasing for several years.
In the Private segment, continued focus has been on developing
price-differentiatedproductsandnewcustomerconceptsinthe
formofspecialbenefitsprogrammesforcustomers.Themoreprice-
differentiatedproductsare,amongotherthings,characterisedby
theinclusionofsignificantlymoreparametersincalculatingtheright
price. Thus, the number of parameters included for travel insurance
have been increased from 1 to 4, and for leisure house insurance the
number of parameters has been increased from 2 to 14. It has also
been important that many of the additional parameters are accessed
via external data. In our contact with potential customers, we can
clearly see that the rate of sales has been higher than for the old non-
differentiatedproducts.Thehighsalesratehasalsobeenpositively
influencedbythesignificantlybetterselcetionofpotentialcustomers.
Initially, the focus has been directed at the Danish market, and the
customers’reactiontothenewprice-differentiatedproductswithin
contents, travel insurance, leisure house and caravan insurance
shows that it is right to develop these products.
A new house insurance was launched in the Norwegian market in
Q2,andinQ3Trygwasthefirstcompanytointroduceanewtypeof
motor insurance cover which means that customers no longer lose
bonus points in connection with damage to their parked car caused
by another car, and where it is not known who caused the damage.

The new concept has been well received, with customers already
showing a lot of interest in Tryg Home Alarm in particular.
In the Norwegian market, a Tryg Plus concept has just been launched
which is structured much like the Danish concept.
Claims
The gross claims ratio was 64.7 (69.0). The claims ratio, net of ceded
business, was improved from 68.9 to 66.4, with most of the 2.5 per-
centagepointimprovementbeingascribedtotheongoingefficiency
programme, which addresses both improved procurement of claims
servicesandamoreefficientclaimshandlingorganisation.The
underlying level was thus improved by 1.6 percentage points.
Costs

Commercial encompasses the sale of insurance products to small
and medium-sized businesses in Denmark and Norway. Sales are
effected by Tryg’s own sales force, franchisees (Norway), customer
centres as well as through group agreements. The business area
accounts for 18% of the Group’s total premium income.

has contributed to increasing competitiveness and selection and
thereby activity levels in the distribution.
The combined ratio was 79.9 (79.2), which is a very low level and
which is partly attributable to the fact that Q3 is usually better than
the year as a whole.
The market situation for the commercial area did not change
significantlyinQ32013andisstillverydifferentinDenmarkand
Norway.Despiteaslightlyhigherlevelofconsumerconfidence,the
Danish market is characterised by a low level of private consumption,
investment caution and a restrained appetite for lending by the
banks, which all in all impacts business negatively. The situation in
Norway is largely unchanged with a positive market for small and
medium-sized businesses based on a high level of private consumption.

than its share in the Danish market, and the distribution setup will
therefore be strengthened in Norway with a view to increasing this
share,whileatthesametimefocusingonmaintainingtheprofit-
ability which has been attained.
Claims
The gross claims ratio was 55.3 (56.8), and the claims ratio, net of
ceded business, was 59.4 (59.1). The development in the claims
ratio, net of ceded business, is due to Tryg’s own measures to
improve the claims procedure within, in particular, the building and
contents insurance market as well as a reduction in the number of
employees involved in claims handling.
Costs
The expense ratio was 20.5, representing an increase which must
be seen in light of the lower premiums. However, the nominal cost
level has been reduced by about 6%, which must be seen in the
context of the objective of improving cost levels for the purpose of
improving Commercial’s competitiveness.
As mentioned above, cost levels must be improved through process
optimisationinCommercialandmoreefficientdistribution,which
istobeachieved,amongotherthings,througharedefinitionofthe
tasks to be performed by Commercial insurance agents and those
to be performed by service centres and outbound sales channels.
The number of employees in Commercial was 507 at the end of

‘Moderna’ in Sweden. Sales are effected both via Tryg’s own
sales force and via insurance brokers. Moreover, customers with
international insurance needs are served by Corporate through its
cooperation with the AXA Group. The business area accounts for
26% of the Group’s total premium income.

is limited, however, as it has been decided to maintain a higher
reinsurance level for this type of business. This is due to the fact
that guarantee insurance is more market-sensitive than Corporate’s
other business activities. The results from the guarantee insurance
business have generally been satisfactory and will have contributed
positively to Tryg’s earnings, also after recognition of this claim.

as the portfolio is still in the development phase.
Premiums
PremiumincomewasDKK1,241m(DKK1,311m),representing
a drop of 2.1% in local currencies. The reduction in premium
income is mainly due to the measures implemented to improve

an improvement has been seen in these conditions, and Tryg has

To increase loyalty, self-service solutions have been developed for
specificallyNorwegianpersonalinjuryinsurancecustomers,offering
customers their own portal and thus a place where they can eas-
ily gain an overview of their entire insurance programme. Tryg’s
customers appreciate the simple approach to insurance, and, in
addition to forging closer ties with customers, the solution is also
an asset in connection with sales to new customers.
The Swedish Corporate segment posted growth of approximately
8%,reflectingcontinuedcontrolledgrowthwithfocusonprofitability.
In this context, it is a strength that many brokers view Moderna as
the preferred company.
Claims
The gross claims ratio stood at 111.8 (78.2), while the claims ratio,
net of ceded business, was 80.5 (80.7). The high gross claims level
can be attributed to the claim mentioned within Tryg Garanti. The

Costs
The expense ratio totalled 12.3 (11.9), and the higher level is mainly
attributable to the reduction in business volume, which is also

Sweden comprises the sale of insurance products to private
customers under the ‘Moderna’ brand. Sales are effected via Tryg’s

accounts for 8% of the Group’s total premium income.

The results for the Private segment as such were satisfactory. The
combinedratiowasreducedto87.8(90.8),thusbeingthefirst
time a combined ratio under 90 for Sweden was attained. The low
combined ratio was made up by a solid improvement in the level
of claims and a slightly higher cost level, which, however, was at a
very satisfactory level.
Premiums
PremiumincomewasDKK442m(DKK477m)inQ32013,
representing a fall of 4.7% in local currencies. The negative devel-
opment in premium income was expected as a consequence of
the structural measures implemented in the form of the termination
of the distribution agreement with Nordea and the relocation of
the distribution from Luleå to Malmö. These measures contributed
significantlytoimprovingprofitability.

Moderna’snewbenefitsprogramme,ModernaBonuskund,
has resulted in more policies being taken out and more products
being sold per customer. In September, a new product structure
was launched, which is divided into small, medium and large.
The ‘large’ product has received an excellent ranking from the
Swedish consumer organisation.
To achieve synergies in the distribution, cross-selling of private
insurance has been initiated between the leisure boat insurance
and car sports/motorcycle niche areas, which has progressed
satisfactorily. In general, sales of leisure boats are up, which can
be attributed to a good summer which stimulated interest in the
leisure boat market.
Claims
The claims ratio for Q3 2013 was 72.6 (75.3), which is an ex-

deviation of around 0.1% of the securities in the match portfolio.

Outlook
The target of a return on equity after tax of 20% and a combined
ratio of 90 or lower from Q3 2013 was attained.
Moving forward, the target remains of delivering a full-year
combined ratio of 90 or lower and a cost level under 15% from
2015, which will ensure a return on equity after tax of 20%.

Description of segments Amounts relating to eliminations, restructuring expenses and discontinued and divested business are included under ‘Other’. Other assets and
liabilities are managed at Group level and are therefore not allocated to the individual segments but are included under ‘Other’.
Costs are allocated according to specific keys, which are believed to provide the best estimate of assessed resource consumption. The operating business segments consist of Private, Commercial, Corporate and Sweden (Private and Commercial). Finland is included under ‘Discontinued and divested business’/’Other’. The comparative figures have been restated accordingly.

8 Accounting policies Tryg’s first to third quarter 2013 report is presented in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the financial reporting
requirements for Danish listed companies of the Danish Financial Business Act and OMX.
The application of IAS 34 means that the report is limited relative to the presentation of a full annual report and that the valuation principles are in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
From 1 January 2013 the Group implemented the following standards: • AmendmentstoIFRS7’FinancialInstruments:Disclosure–Offsettingofasetsandliabilities’ • AmendmentstoIAS12’DeferredTax–RecoveryofunderlyingAssets’ • IFRS13‘FairValueMeasurement’ • AmendmentstoIAS1‘PresentationofitemsofotherComprehensiveIncome’ • AmendmentstoIAS1‘AnnualImprovemnets2009-2011Cycle(comparativeinformation)’ • AmendmentstoIAS16‘AnnualImprovements2009-2011cycle(Servicingequipment)’ • IAS19(asrevisedin2011)‘EmployeeBenefits’ • IAS27(asrevisedin2011)‘SeparateFinancialStatements’ • IAS28(asrevisedin2011)‘InvestmentsinAssociatesandJointVentures’ • AmendmentstoIAS32‘AnnualImprovements2009-2011Cycle(taxeffectofequitydistribution)’ The implementation of the new standards has not significantly affected recognition and measurement in 2013. Apart from this, the accounting policies are unchanged from the annual report 2012. The annual report 2012 contains the full description of the accounting policies.
Changes in accounting estimates The calculation of insurance technical interest was changed with effect from Q2 2013. Insurance technical interest is subsequently
calculated based on the monthly average provision plus interest under the present yield curve for each individual group of risks taking into account the provisions’ expected run-off pattern. A co-weighted interest from the present yield curve was previously used for each individual group of risks.
The change does not affect the net profit for the year as it concerns a redistribution between the technical result and the investment return
netofinsurancetechnicalinterest.ThechangeisestimatedtohaveincreasedtheinsurancetechnicalresultbyasmuchasDKK12m, with the investment return being reduced by the same amount.
Change in the estimated tax percentage from 25% to 23 % in Q3 2013 is due to change in the expected tax free share gains in Norway
and the reduction in the tax percentage in Denmark in the coming years.
